Sent a test message to my wife's PC which is a Win 7 OS and uses Live Mail.

All apostrophes went through as typed.

Very interesting issue now. Looks like the problem is with Outlook and

Outlook Express. I'll try sending to an Apple machine in the morning.

Hi, OVBill!

I'm sorry to learn the HTML code is appearing in these emails you send. I am looking further into this. I would like to know a little more information if possible. Does this happen if you send an email from Comcast only or other email account as well? Have you seen any trends like who you send to (ie Comcast to Comcast; Comcast to Gmail) etc? Please keep me posted so I can assist further!

Thank you,

Hi AdamE,

I just sent an email containing won't, can't, don't to my comcast.net address from my Razr Maxx using my gmail account. The message was received without error on my PC. Hope this helps. As I previously mentoned my PC is a Windows 7 machine using Outlook Express. I've sent same message to a Blackberry, a Windows 7 PC using Windows Live Mail and a MAC without issue. A PC on Windows 7 and Outlook received the HTML code.

Hi again AdamE,

I just sent a second test to my PC from my Droid Razr Maxx.

I sent Won't, don't can't and then Don:t, can"t won;t.  This is what came through. Interesting to see that it appears only the apostrophe is affected.

Won't, don't can't. Don:t can"t won;t

I am having the same issue.

For what it's worth, I normally send from my droid on a comcast.net email acount, however I have also tried sending on a gmail.com account, and I still get the weird characters.  My latest email today had the following:

women's:  women's

can't:         can't
What's:     What's
don't:         don't

Verizon- PLEASE FIX- this is really annoying eveyone I send emails to!

I downloaded and installed a new e-mail app, Droidmail, fixed the problem. Easy to install and works like a champ! Guess this is an issue with default e-mail client and nobody cares.
